A set of characters for the orthographies of Riggs, Williamson, Boas & Deloria, and

Standard Siouan ANSI Fonts
A standard ANSI character set in the same type faces as the others. This set matches
the others in situations where ANSI characters are needed.

Except for the phonetic set, all sets are based on the ANSI character set,
and provided the same characters as the ANSI set in the first 128 characters. The
differences from the ANSI set occur in the upper 128 characters.

Each set of fonts consists of a serif face (Doulos), a sansserif face
(Sophia), and a monospaced typewriter face (Manuscript) in regular, italic, bold, and bold
italic variants. The fonts are not well hinted and look better printed than on the
screen. They are functional on the screen.

The fonts were prepared with the Summer
Institute of Linguistics (SIL) Printing Arts Department's Encore Fonts package.
